I like the PT Dio. I would lean mor e toward the "They Were Expendible" dio. Thanks Sean!

I simply love the idea, not only buy a diorama but also in 1-700, however what are you actually getting for $75.00 - by this I mean - if you were to buy all model parts elsewhere and scratch build the island from plaster yourself ?
